Broersma was voted the NAIA's women's Swimmer of the Year for her performance, another award which she has received in back-to-back seasons.

Kemnitz adds this latest accolade to a decorated 15^th season at the helm of the Blue Raiders' women's swimming program. She was also selected as the Mid-South Conference and NAIA women's Head Coach of the Year, the latter of which being the first of her career.
